Olmsted, IL – In May, Jacque Day brought us an overview of the Olmsted Locks and Dam project on the lower Ohio River. Last month she investigated the long-term costs. Today, she'll explore the wilder side of the project. In this third and final installment, Jacque Day looks into how this massive development, 3 decades in the making, has affected the lives and habitats of animals that call the area home.
